Verlauf

Projektgeschichte und Nutzung

uhubctl is a command-line utility for controlling per-port power on USB hubs that implement USB per-port power switching.

Projektgeschichte

The public uhubctl repository was created in 2015. Its README credits hub-ctrl.c by Niibe Yutaka as the original inspiration and defines the target hardware as smart USB hubs that can switch power per port.

The project grew around a practical compatibility table rather than only a codebase. The README tracks known working hubs, monitors, docks, keyboards, Raspberry Pi boards, and embedded devices, and asks users to report working hardware with uhubctl output and VBUS-off test results.

Release metadata shows v1.8 in 2017, v2.0.0 in 2018, a series of 2.x releases through 2022, and v2.6.0 in 2024.

Adoptionsgeschichte

uhubctl's adoption is closely tied to lab automation, embedded development, Raspberry Pi work, USB device testing, and remote recovery workflows where physically unplugging a device is inconvenient. The README documents Raspberry Pi models and many external hubs and docks as compatible or partially compatible devices.

The supplied package data records uhubctl in Homebrew, MacPorts, Nix, Alpine, Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora/dnf, and openSUSE. The official README likewise lists package-manager install commands for macOS, Debian-family systems, Red Hat-family systems, openSUSE, and FreeBSD.

Wie es verwendet wird

The common command form is to list supported hubs, then turn a selected port off, on, toggle it, or cycle it with a configurable delay. The README documents location selection for multi-hub systems and cautions that switching built-in USB ports can disconnect keyboards or mice.

On Linux, the README documents udev rules for non-root access and notes that Linux kernel 6.0 and later provide a standard interface for disabling hub ports, which uhubctl tries to use instead of libusb where possible.

The README also explains USB 3.0 duality: a USB 3 hub can appear as separate USB2 and USB3 virtual hubs, and power changes may need to be applied to both for the physical port state to match the user's expectation.

Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren

uhubctl is significant because it turns a hardware capability that is inconsistently implemented by consumer devices into a scriptable package-manager tool. That makes it useful for test rigs, CI benches with attached hardware, home labs, and headless systems.

For packagers, the interesting part is not just compiling a small C program; it is carrying libusb behavior, OS-specific permissions, kernel interface changes, and documentation for hardware quirks that determine whether the command actually cuts power.

  • uhubctl depends on libusb for portable USB access and, on newer Linux kernels, can use the kernel port-disable interface.
